Description: | A copper alloy, openwork artefact, possibly a mount of medieval date. It has four small circular domed lobes in a row attached to a larger openwork plate. The plate is trapezoidal in shape and is perforated with 18 small circular holes presumably for decoration and possibly so that the object can be sewn onto fabric. On the reverse the main plate is flat and the domed lobes are concave. These lobes are reminiscent of a type of decoration found on some early medieval strap ends. The object measures 39.48mm in length, 22.39mm in width, 5.12mm in thickness and weighs 11.4g. | Format: | text/html | License: | http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/3.0/ | Publisher: | The Portable Antiquities Scheme | Rights holder: | The Portable Antiquities Scheme | Subjects: | archaeology | Temporal: | 1000
